D4VD: The Interview That Goes Where Others Won't

from True Crime Today | Daily True Crime News & Interviews · host Real Story Media

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott brings over three decades of clinical expertise in trauma, violence psychology, and forensic mental health to a complete three-part examination of the D4VD case with Tony Brueski.The charges against David Anthony Burke in the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez include first-degree murder with special circumstances, continuous sexual abuse of a child, lying in wait, financial motive, and mutilation of remains. Scott — author of The Minds of Mass Killers — examines the psychological landscape underneath every element.Part 1: How does a 13-year-old become this vulnerable? The family dynamics, the resource gap, the platform failures, and the repeated runaway behavior that allegedly created the conditions for exploitation.Part 2: The months of alleged silence. The psychology of compartmentalization. The behavior of Burke's inner circle — from loyalty to flight to forced testimony. What drives a family to fight against answering questions about their own child.Part 3: The "young and dumb" defense versus what the charges actually describe. The psychological significance of art that mirrors the alleged violence. The alleged composure under public exposure. And the damage to millions of young fans trying to reconcile the artist they loved with the person prosecutors describe.Three parts that go deeper than headlines — into the psychology that allegedly made this possible.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
